RE: iscsi : changes involving tgt portal group tag.

	We would also have to change SendTargets to mandate returning the
targetAddress, or specify a default TPG for use in the cases where
SendTargets returns no targetAddress.

Perhaps we should discuss this in Minneapolis.  I agree with Santosh,
TPG should be added to the login message to verify that this is the
intended target port.  I don't see how that is interpreted as
"discovery territory", since it's just the initiator explicitly
identifying the intended target port.  Currently a login contains
initiator and target names, and initiator port number (ISID), so
adding target port number is consistent.  There's still room in the
login header, and this wouldn't break any current implementations.
Why is this a problem?

I did not hear compelling arguments for it and it drags us even more
into discovery teritory - Julo

What is the closure on this issue ? Will the Target Portal Group Tag
be
a part of the login request ?
